So, no I19 tomorrow then?


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Poor Jesse, he'll never get rid of that nickname now. Especially since he's made it known that he doesn't answer to that name.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

Dood...I can't wait to see how Black Scorpion manages to escape those infernal Chinese enchanted oriental finger cuffs!

That was a blast to watch get made!

Nope, no loss here. Just got tired of trying to find a good new mission that wasn't a farm of some sort. For me this game is about the story and the vast majority of the missions in the MA are farms with no story. There are some good ones, just not enough to make it worth my while to look for anymore.

I can't wait to play it through!

I would EVEN MORE SO love to play it through after respecing with the fitness pool native. That would be GREEEEAAAAAATEEE... ^_^

Played the story earlier this evening. I like the idea. It wasn't too hard or too easy for my solo blaster. Had a couple of spelling/typo errors in the NPC dialog, but other than that it was good.

Be prepared: It's set for lvl 1-20 enemies.


Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

By the way, complaining that you can't find anything but farms in a thread created to promote something that isn't a farm is even more....ah, forget it.
Why not read it? As for posting, why not post? I will tell you why I did it though . . . BOREDOM. Waiting on other things to happen so I am not getting into a mission I might have to end, instead I read the forums and post something when it suits me.

Mission was alright. Nothing special, really.

There's a Mission Architect forum and the MA Arc Finder channel ingame if you want to find decent non-farm arcs. Plenty of people don't have difficulty finding good arcs to play using these resources.

Poor GMan. If only the community got together, devised a new arc and then some forum moderator posted it to some sort of online forum. Then you could easily try it without having to sift through the dross.

But of course that's a pipe dream. Better off to post here, in this thread which isn't any of the things I mentioned above whatsoever, how you don't play the MA instead.

The common courtesy is to avoid commenting when you have nothing useful to say, and when bored to go make your own fun. At least, that is how I teach my children to do it.

Lol

The only reason I read the forums is to read the arguing in every single thread!

(and yes, occasionally take part)

So you teach your children to be seen and not heard. Gotcha. I teach mine to actually be a part of society and not just watching it from the outside.

Yeah. I'm not sure how he could have misunderstood that statement any further. Its not like he even misinterpreted it. He completely ignored the words in the response and tried to assemble a poorly crafted zinger.

He might as well as said "Oh yeah? Spaghetti Rock and roll"

Nice little mission. Is that a new map? I don't remember seeing it before.

One little question: why limit it to 8-20? Was that limitation the result of using Luddites? I seldom use the native enemy groups because I prefer to make my own, so I almost never bump into the situation where the enemy group limits the level range of the mission.

Anyway, gave it four stars. Not a bad little mission for a collaborative effort. What's that saying about committees and design? Yeah, it applies here as well.
